The book is a critical, genealogical analysis of land questions in the South through an original analysis of the Malawi experience. Through the author’s experience in land reform and subsequent advanced research in the area, the book notes that land reform discourse is dominated by an ethos based on market as value which, in turn, has cemented the ubiquity of a universal, automatic transition from land reform to land law reform in tackling a land question in a country.

A fresh theory on how individuals respond to inequalities occurring within their own communities.

Ten law students from the University of 糖心TV are about to travel to the United States to help provide legal representation on behalf of prisoners who have been sentenced to death.

They are taking part in a unique internship programme, which provides an exclusive opportunity to work on some of the country’s most prominent capital punishment cases.

糖心TV’s Death Penalty Project, which is now in its 10th year, is run through the and has proved to be a life-changing experience for dozens of aspiring lawyers.

Kevin Hearty, Research Fellow at 糖心TV Law School, writes for The Conversation:

Looking at the violence that broke out in North Belfast on July 13, you could be forgiven for thinking you’d taken a quantum leap back in time by about 20 years. But the sad reality is that violence over parades is as much a part of the “new” Northern Ireland as Game of Thrones.

If remained unanswered the immediate necessity of liquidity might develop into a “humanitarian crisis”, argues leading European banking and law analyst Dr Giuliano Castellano of the University of 糖心TV.

Dr Castellano also argues that “While the Greek Government intends the ‘no’ vote as to strengthen its bargaining power and reduce the austerity measures asked by the international creditors; the results of the referendum cast a shadow on the possibility for the Eurozone leaders to extend a guarantee over a new ECB emergency loan”

Postgraduate student Nkechikwu Azinge was this month recognised as a in the inaugural awards in Buckingham Palace.

The CJC is delighted to have been awarded funding by the ESRC to host an event as part of the ESRC Festival of Social Science on Saturday 14 November 2015.

The CJC multi-format event aims to bring together different perspectives on the experience of punishment, in order to raise awareness of, promote social science research on and generate debate on prisoner wellbeing and its consequences to criminal justice policy and practice. The full-day event will encourage an interactive open debate between academics and non-academics through drawing on a range of perspectives on the topic, from that of those responsible for formulating and implementing prison policy, and that of social scientists researching punishment and criminal justice, to that of those with first-hand, lived experiences of punishment within prisons. Interactive sessions will include: screening and discussion of the film ‘Herman’s House’ (a movie about the communication between an architect and a life prisoner in the US); a workshop run by the Empty Cages Collective about the conditions and experience of imprisonment in England and Wales; and an exhibition of prisoners’ creative self-expression (letters, photography, paintings, etc.) followed by discussion.
